I have 36mg/ml in 20 ml. I want to dilute it to 6mg/ml. How much no nic do I add? Does anyone have an EASY formula?

19.2ml of your 36
100.8ml of pg or vg
gives you 120ml of 6mg
I used the excel spreadsheet floating around here. Not jaax's<sp?> but the other one. Seems more user friendly.

*Edit: Or basically 1 part 36mg to 5 parts 0mg.
IE...1ml of 36+5ml of pg or vg = 6ml of 6mg.
If this is flavored juice you're cutting, expect it to taste like nothing when cutting it that much. And I wouldn't use JUST vg. You're talking an 84% cut...That'd be like cold syrup LOL.

yup yup.. what Jim said... that's what I do then if it appeals to me I add some flavoring
Wow...what a great link! Who the heck came up with that? 
Rimp, you may want to experiment with a smaller amount first....like 5 ml...just so you don't ruin a whole bottle of juice if it doesn't come out quite right. Sometimes it's hard to salvage if it doesn't come out right and that's a lot of juice to 'ruin'. Once you find what works for you, then you can always make larger quantities. Just a tip

Good point Lu.
When I first started out, I mixed a whole bottle. 30ml of pure crap ended up down the kitchen sink.

Yep, same here. I tried adding more flavor...then it was too thin. Then I added more VG....then it had barely any nic. I didn't toss it though....tried throwing a little in with my other mixes just to use it up....and still have some left! LOL
Never did that again though!

I get mine from CVS Pharmacy or Walmart. You'll find it with the skin care products. It says "Pure Glycerin USP" CVS & Walmart have their own brands.
Micheals Crafts has it also. Wilton's Brand in the baking section. The Wilton's comes in very small bottles. I keep a bottle of Wilton's in my carry-on, in case I have to mix while on the road.
I believe you can get it in health food stores too.
Wow...does this search function stink! 6000 threads on vg but if you put it in the search box or tag search box....nothing comes up!
Anyhoo....as Jim said, there are several places to get it. As long as it says USP, it should be safe. Here's one thread I found on it (just happens to be what I use but that's not why I chose it):
